| The Biggest Fall Season Yet!
|
 It's been such an exciting time here at AbbyShot, and the good news just keeps on coming! After our big licensed product launch last month - the Malcolm Reynolds Browncoat of course! - there's a new man in town and he goes by one name only:
The Doctor!
AbbyShot has always taken the coolest clothing designs from sci-fi and turned them into real-life garments: our impressive new Doctor Who designs are no exception! Even if you're not a fan of the show, these garments are simply jaw-dropping! Read on for this and other great Christmas gift ideas!

| Doctor Who Licensed Clothing Launched! |
The time has come. But has it come too quickly?  The Tenth Doctor is stepping down next month from his role as saviour of Earth, and it will be up to true fans to carry on his legacy! Ask yourself these 2 questions:
Are you a real Time Lord?
Or are you the Tenth Doctor's Companion?
Available to order now from AbbyShot - The official licensed Tenth Doctor's Coat and Martha Jones Companion Jacket. Exclusively from AbbyShot Clothiers, Officially Licensed by BBC Worldwide. This has been without a doubt our  biggest release to date - the emails, phone calls, and Skype messages have been pouring in about these garments. In the words of our company president this release has "created an epidemic" with fans, and luckily there's no vaccine required ;) There's one warning though - there is a limited quantity of these garments available for pre-Christmas delivery! So if you're thinking about buying your new coat or jacket before this year's "Christmas Invasion" - unless you've got a TARDIS there's really no time to wait!

Browncoats: Flying Faster Than Serenity!
|
 You can't take the sky from me... and you'd best not take my Browncoat!
Last month we brought back the Malcolm Reynolds Browncoat and the reaction from fans of the Serenity / Firefly 'Verse was nothing less than "SHINY"!
There was much love for the new-and-improved officially licensed Browncoat, the  RealBrowncoats.com website, and of course (as one clever fan dubbed it on our Facebook Page) the Big Damn Trivia Quiz! 82 tough questions about the Serenity 'Verse - only the most "cunning" have gotten through it! ;)
This holiday season, prove to your friends and family that you're still fighting for Independence (OR give the shiniest gift this side of Beaumonde!) with the official Malcolm Reynolds Browncoat from AbbyShot.
Just be aware: there are limited quantities available for pre-Christmas delivery!

 For those in the U.S. especially, tomorrow is a big day - Black Friday!

We're not saying there WILL be something happening for Black Friday, but let's just say that it certainly won't hurt to check! |
AbbyShot Makes the Coolest Christmas Gifts!

This holiday season, you'll be as popular as Santa himself! With great gift ideas like these, there is no excuse to give a gift card! :) We have replenished our stock of three very popular and exciting AbbyShot items.
 GIG Shrug
Every woman would love something dazzling this holiday season. With its sleek lines and soft, supple leather, this shrug is the perfect gift to make any woman sparkle.
The GIG Shrug is made from high quality, 100% genuine leather. Not only is there a pocket on the bicep but each sleeve also has a zipper at the end to allow for easier wear. High fashion can be comfortable too!
Available for pre-Christmas delivery: Sizes XS, S, M, L, XL
 Max Jacket
Nothing says Christmas like Mad Max, right? ....um... well it is an awesome Christmas gift! :) Some people think it's "festive" to wear red and green during the holidays. We say WEAR BLACK!
AbbyShot's Max Jacket is based on the leather MFP jacket that Max Rockatansky wore in the first Mad Max film. This is the time of year to indulge and get something you've always wanted. This year it's okay to get Mad, as long as it's with Max.
Available for pre-Christmas delivery: Sizes S, M, L, XL
 Kingdom Hoodie
The look is cool, the price is right, what more can we say? Kingdom Hoodies are popular all year round, but especially during the holidays. It is the perfect gift for anyone who likes to maintain some edge while still being comfortable.
All sizes available for pre-Christmas delivery:
XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL

Road Warrior Weekend: Were You Lucky Enough to Be There?
|
The biggest Mad Max event EVER was held this past weekend and we're wondering: were any AbbyShot fans in attendance? Called the "Road Warrior Weekend Event", this three-day adventure was a true mecca for all things Mad Max! No mere hotel or convention hall can hold Mad  Max fans - this party was held - where else? - deep in the Wasteland! More specifically, fans made the trek to the desert about 2 hours drive from Los Angeles, California. From the write-up we read on the LA Weekly Blog, it sounds like this was an amazingly good time. We're still waiting on word from our friends at Mad Max Cars who were in attendance (we hope they didn't run out of guzzoline on the way back!) so in the meantime - were there any Newsletter readers lucky enough to attend? Did you wear your AbbyShot Mad Max gear? Most importantly - did you get pictures? If you said yes to any of the previous questions: we want to hear from you! |

| Customer E-mails - November 2009 Edition |
 The customer emails this month are from fans that are truly fearless and bold. We couldn't help but smile when we saw these pictures! The first customer email comes all the way from Outer Heaven. Solidus really put the Foxhound Coat to the test! "It has been tested and found to excel in every way." What more can you ask for in a coat? ;) The second customer email that we chose this month is from a couple in Germany who really make an impression! "All our friends and acquaintances were wowed, both by the Enigma and the G-I-G Shrug."Finally, we have a
customer who really loves his Squall Jacket: "The collar was amazing
looks so much more real then any other squall outfit I've seen." AbbyShot always aims to please!
